Difference between revisions of "Category:AY Honors/Recreation Master Award"

The Recreation Master involves honors of outdoors activities that do not primarily involve a prize or win/loss. Because there is a Wilderness Master, this doesn’t include camping. Because there is an Aquatic Master, this is land sports & recreation.

Doubling Up Rule

Some honors may be included in more than one Master Award. For example, the Shells Honor is part of the Naturalist Master and also the Zoology Master Award. The rationale is that a shell is part of nature and it is also an animal. If a Shell Honor has been used to earn a Naturalist Master Award, the same honor cannot be used to earn a Zoology Master Award. This 'Doubling Up' rule applies to all honors in such a situation.
